Wonderful hat, Joe.

Stefan, I don't know where to start its a little overwhelming, so many great hats. Your Italian hat parade is a hit!



Wow, that is a real furry velour. What a neat hat. Looking forward to the rest of the Austrian hat show.
Thank you, Reggie. I'm sure you could come up with quite the parade of Italians yourself.

Thanks Stefan. I had to repair and reinstall the sweat on this one. And gave it something of a reblock and flange. I'm happy with the way it turned out.

Thanks.

Great bunch of hats. I think I would have to give up wearing hats if I had your Italian collection. It would be too stressful trying to decide which one to wear every day.

Thanks Snowman. The felt is good, unfortunately the sweat is totally toasted.

Michael
Thanks, Michael. It can be difficult to choose sometimes; best to buy another one when that happens:)

Nice to see one in black, Perry.

A week of intense rain here in Verona, snow all around especially in the hills and mountains of course.
No hats, but raincoats and wool caps.

Today the cold has arrived with the sun and therefore the new homburg for the Homburg & Festivity series.

It is a Borsalino Qualità Extra Extra Superiore, size 6 or 59 cm. or 7 3/8 in US. It arrived in pitiful condition and was resurrected in the hands of Fleur of Penumbra hat.

The color of the felt is "Palladio" and the ribbon is "Nero", the type is "Gulaela", so says the paper label.

The felt is of medium consistency very malleable, the combination of contrasting colors is fantastic, especially the two different ribbons.

Happy New Year, if I haven't written it yet and a compliment to all of you for the quality hats shown in these weeks.
Fleur did an outstanding job on that one, Daniele. Glad to see the rains didn't wash you away!
